CHENNAI: It was already announced that Unni Mukundan will be portraying Prime Minister Narendra Modi in the upcoming biopic, Maa Vande, a multilingual film that aims to explore the lesser-known, emotional chapters of the Indian leader’s life. Marking the actor's birthday, a special poster was released by the team.

Produced by Silver Cast Creations and directed by Kranthi Kumar CH, the film’s title, Maa Vande (translated as Mother, I Salute Thee), reflects its emotional anchor- the relationship between Modi and his late mother, Heeraben Modi. “This isn’t a political drama or propaganda,” the director said. “At its heart, this is a story about a son and his mother. It’s about how love, discipline, and values shape the journey of a man who would go on to lead a nation,” he added.
